package org.glassfish.jersey.internal.inject;

import java.lang.annotation.Annotation;

This class allows users to provide a custom injection target for any annotation (including @Inject). The user would usually only provide a resolver for @Inject if it were specializing the system provided resolver for @Inject. Otherwise, this resolver can be used to provide injection points for any annotation. 
 Jersey provides all InjectionResolvers for JAX-RS annotation and org.glassfish.jersey.server.Uri apart from Context which must be implemented and registered directly as a part of DI integration because of many optimization which cannot be implemented on Jersey side. 
 The InjectionResolvers are delivered to DI integration using InjectionManager.register(Binder) and DI provider just filter InjectionResolverBinding and internally register the annotation handling using its own mechanism. 
Type parameters:
<T> – This must be the annotation class of the injection annotation that this resolver will handle./**
